Did you notice it's been over 20 minutes since anyone in Branson has made a QCA post? They must be quilting up a storm with their peddles to the metal...

It's true! The room is a-buzzing with the sound of sewing machines. Right now I'm also hear ripping from Leslie's station - she's paper piecing. There are slicing sounds coming from Elaine at the cutting table. Puffs of steam are sounding from Deb at the ironing board (yes, she's sewing now). Lots of conversation from Thea's corner. It's a busy group!

I think we're going to break to make chicken pincushions this afternoon. Some of us need a break from the same basic piecing we're doing over and over and over again. I've got lots of blocks in progress, but nothing to show in a photo yet, if you know what I mean.
